+### Distilled (few-step) text-to-image and image-to-video
+
+Few-step distilled checkpoints ship a fixed sigma schedule in
+`scheduler.config.fixed_step_sampler_config.t_list` and bake classifier-free guidance into
+the weights. They are served by the dedicated [`Cosmos3DistilledModularPipeline`] (blocks:
+`Cosmos3DistilledBlocks`) — the task-based [`Cosmos3OmniPipeline`] and the base
+[`Cosmos3OmniModularPipeline`] do not implement the distilled contract.
+
+Load a distilled repo and call the pipeline **without** `num_inference_steps` or
+`guidance_scale`; `Cosmos3DistilledSetTimestepsStep` reads the fixed step count from the
+scheduler config and forces `guidance_scale=1.0`. Because classifier-free guidance is baked
+into the weights, `negative_prompt` is not supported (passing one raises an error).
+
+Prompts follow the same descriptive JSON structure as the non-distilled models, so short text
+must be upsampled first — use `--mode text2image` (T2I) or `--mode image2video` (I2V) as
+described in [Prompt upsampling](#prompt-upsampling), then pass the JSON via `json.dumps(...)`.
+
+```python
+import json
+import torch
+from diffusers import Cosmos3DistilledModularPipeline
+from diffusers.utils import export_to_video, load_image
+
+# JSON-upsampled prompt (see "Prompt upsampling" above).
+json_prompt = json.load(open("assets/example_t2i_prompt.json"))
+
